today

I was driving down home from Delhi in my zen, when i hit a traffic jam in Faridabad. But i wasn't complaining, because it was the opposite side of the two way road that was locked.
I wasn't complaining, till a huge Toyota SUV with a red beacon light broke away from the jam and sped into my lane, head on. I came to a screeching halt, so did the Toyota. And almost instantly the driver rolled down his opaque, black tinted window. He signaled me to back up.
And back up all the way till the end of the lane.
I could have, there was no one behind me. But why the fuck? You mister Toyota, are in the wrong fucking lane. Surely, you're not in an emergency. Besides what sort of an emergency could you possibly be in. Because, SUVs with flashing beacon lights aren't really known for responding to calamities.
So I didn't budge.
Soon enough, the traffic on his side started to move and he forced his way back onto his side.He stopped right next to me and barked, "teri akar ne thikaane lagaa dunga. kaun hai tu behenchod?"
I pondered the question as his beacon flashed in my face. I had no answer.
